I’ll be your welcome friend
And I will stay with you to the end.
I will comfort you and your tired eyes
And I won’t leave till the end of the night.

Welcome friend,
I’ll be your welcome friend.
And I will stay with you to the end.
I will be with you, wear no disguise
And I will stay with you through the night.

I will sit here and wait for you to find
Something to hold on
And won’t leave till you find comfort
In your saddened eyes.

Welcome friend,
I will be your welcome friend
And i will stay with you to the end.
I will sit here with your sullen eyes
And will stay here through the end of your life.

Welcome friend,
I will be your welcome friend
And I will be there for the beginning
I will welcome you with open arms
And will walk you through the way.
